Leasehold Cafe For Sale

Business description

Bag A Business is delighted to offer for sale The Coffee Pot. Established in 1997, it has been in our client's careful ownership since 2005 and is now reluctantly offered for, at a reduced price, sale due to ill health. The business currently operates as a coffee shop and ice cream parlour offering fresh produce including sandwiches, cakes, jacket potatoes, paninis, baguettes, pasta and ice cream. The business benefits from a sandwich delivery round to large blue chip companies in the area. The Coffee Pot also has a wholesale ice cream distribution business for a well known New Forest brand with several well established customers all year and supplies shows, fetes and fayres etc. The business has recently been awarded 4 stars for hygiene. There is vast potential for new owners to increase trade with the possibility of introducing a sandwich bar at the front of the premises and through promoting the ice cream wholesaling and increasing the number of outlets. Turnover is currently £200,000 producing 70% Gross Profit.

The town attracts visitors all year due the lovely surrounding countryside and is famous for the Frome Festival, which lasts for 10 days and is the largest of its type in Somerset.
